Joey, You will be in my heart forever. You were like a little brother to me and I am so happy for all those times you chose to confide and vent to me. We had a bond that I can't explain in words. I know you will be looking down on me and helping me through the hard times and sharing my smiles through the good times. Now, I find myself thinking of the times when you and my brother Anthony would be running around outside the house and enjoying every moment of being together. I will never forget the times we shared and all those nights we sat on my sofa talking for hours. I LOVE YOU...
Enzo, Lori and Sara... I am so sorry for your loss. He was a great kid and will be missed by many.

I don't know what to say, Joey has been one of my best friends since I can remember beign in Somers. The memories are irreplacable and will forever remain with me. I am so sorry his life was cut way to short for what he was supposed to do. My thoughts and prayers are with the Letizia family always. He was an amazing son, brother and friend to all of us and will never be forgotten. His smile and laugh stay with me daily giving me strength to carry on as he always was, with a smile on his face always wanting to make people happy. I love you Joey, rest in peace.

To my Godson and Nephew, David,
One year has passed, but the memory of you is very vivid. Your handsome face, your soft smile, and your strong hug will remain with me forever. You are remembered each and every day and you will be remembered forever.
The last line in the letter I read to you at your memorial service said, "You will be on our minds and in our hearts each and every day until we meet again in heaven."
Your Mom, Dad and Sara's hearts are broken because they miss you and Joe so much. It's going to take until you all meet again to truly mend those broken hearts.
We all know how much they are suffering and miss both of you and we will continue to "wrap our arms around them, as promised."
David, when I held you in my arms when you were being christened, I prayed for you spiritually and now I ask that you continue to pray for us and guide us with your spirit through our days and pray for Sara and your Mom and Dad that they keep their faith and continue with their lives as you and Joey would have wanted them too.
Dear David, you will always hold a very special place in my heart. I will continue to pray and think of you everday.
I Love You, David,
Auntie Donna, Uncle Mike, Matthew and Susanna XOXOXOXO

Donna Keough-Mello posted a condolence
Dear Joey,
"Little Joey," this is what you were called for so many years. There is Grandpa Joe, Uncle Joey, your cousin Joe, so many Joe's. So you were called "Little Joey" or "Joe Joe," that's what your Mom and Dad would say.
You were such a sweet little boy who was so attached to your Mom from the day you were born. I remember your Mom telling me how she would hold you and you would rub the bottom of her chin with your little fingers. Your Mom had the same habit when she was young, rubbing the silk at the top of her blanket with her fingers. This comforted her and she comforted you.
I wasn't always there to see you, but your Mom and Dad would fill me in on how you were doing with your sports, school and friendships. So I always felt like I was there.
I remember one of my first visits, when you were young, and I wanted to take you for a walk to the playground. You had your arms tightly wrapped around your mother's neck and you had to take a good look at her first and make sure your brother David was going too. Finally, with some hesitation, you agreed to go for the walk. It was a fun walk, we were laughing and having a good time. On our way back, we did get lost for a bit. Your Mom and Dad had already started walking the street to find us, but we eventually found our way back HOME. After that you loved taking those walks with me.
I remember when you were young and you had to have surgery on your heart. Your brother David, who was very young himself, didn't really know why you weren't at HOME with him. Your Mom and Dad brought your brother David to the hospital so he could see you. I remember your Mom telling me that you were in the waiting room or corrider in your wheelchair, and David was not sure what to do when he first saw you. He was standing there just looking at you. Then you put a big smile on your face and David went running to you and he gave you the biggest hug. He knew, "I have my brother back," and now everything is going to be OK. After that, if I recall, you were trying to do wheelies in your wheelchair or racing down the corrider with your brother running right beside you.
When David died, some of us stood in a circle, holding hands and talked about some of the great memories we had of David. Even though this would be emotional for you, you stood there and talked about so many nice and happy memories. I know your brother heard you and he heard all of us and now I would like you to hear me:
Joey: When I think of you, I think of someone who truly cared about people. You wanted to protect your family and you wanted peace. I know how much you loved your mother and father. I know how much you loved and how special your sister Sara was to you. I know how much they all love you. You were a sincere friend to everyone. There is an expression of someone being an "old soul," but I think of you as a "kind soul." You always had the "biggest heart." I smile whenever I picture your face, because whenever I saw you, you always had a smile on your face. Just like the smile you gave David---that smile made him feel OK and now that picture I have of you makes me feel OK.
But like the first walk we took together, sometimes we do lose our way. Trying to figure out how do I get myself out of this and how do I get back to where I want to be? Do I know where I am? Do I know which turn to take or path to cross to lead me in the right direction?
God answered those questions for you Joey, the day you passed away. He led you HOME, back to your brother, David. This time, David had a big smile on his face and when you saw David, you went running to him and you knew that you had your brother back and everything was going to be OK.
Just knowing the two of you are together, I know I can continue to picture you with that big smile on your face and that will always make me smile.
God will always bring you peace and protection and we will always miss you and think of you. I know you will bring peace and protection to your sister Sara and your Mom and Dad, and they will continue their lives in the right direction until that path leads them back to you and David.
It has been one year since you passed, but I feel you and your brother are here with me everyday.
We love you and miss you, Joey,
Love, Auntie Donna, Uncle Mike, Matthew and Susanna
XOXOXOXO

Dear Joey,
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and David. One of the last things that you said to me was that you wanted to go to the casino with me and that you would be my good luck charm. We never got the chance to go to the casino together- but you will always be my good luck charm. You and David are in my heart and I will love you forever.

Joey...I didn't know you that well, but I knew you my whole life. One thing I will always remember about you is how much of a good-hearted person you were. I was bullied my whole life and so I could appreciate someone like you who truly wasn't a bully, but a compassionate person. I miss you so much lately, have been thinking about you non-stop, and still have a hard time believing this actually happened. I asked you last night to give me a sign sometime today that you were there watching over me and helping me through all that's going on in my life, and you DID. Which only reminds me of how genuine and good-hearted you were and still are. You had such a big heart, and in my life there are so many who are heartless and mean to me. I really wish you were still around. I miss and love you. RIP.

Missing You posted a condolence
It's been over a year since you left us, but I found some pictures of you last week from when you were younger, with all the spiky hair and the big smile, and it really hit me for the first time that you're really gone. Lately I've sort of been struggling with it - and I honestly can't compare myself to what Lori, Enzo and Sara are feeling because that would be just obnoxious of me - but when this first happened, I was in such shock I almost put it out of my mind, if that makes sense. I didn't need the love and support I could have gotten from my friends, etc. because I was in shock and hadn't processed it at all yet. Now here I am over a year later and it's just processed for the first time, and it hit me really hard, like a brick wall, and I feel like I have no one to talk to except to you in prayer. You were such a beautiful person, smart, and good-hearted. It really wasn't supposed to end this way, it's not fair. I feel so bad that you won't be around anymore, and I really wish I had been closer to you, but I'll never forget the last time I saw you and being so impressed with what a nice person you were. I mean that sincerely. Even though we weren't so close, I miss you a lot Joey. RIP, I won't be seeing you for a long time, but until that day, please watch over me and know how much I miss you. Love you Joey.

Joey, I will never ever forget you or Dave and all the fun times we had together. From playing sports with you two to riding dirtbikes at your house, there was never a dull moment. I consider myself lucky that I had the honor of being your friend and getting to know you. Like your brother, you had an enormous amount of potential. It breaks my heart when I think of what could have been of you were still here. But I do believe everything happens for a reason and God gained two angels when you guys left us. You were an aspiring artist and I loved and truly respected your art work. You and Dave could pick up anything and be amazing at it. There was no stopping your talents. I miss you guys everyday and always wish and wonder what it would be like if you were still with us. Please continue to watch over your loving family. I’ll never forget you man.
With much love,
A Friend
